Composition for remedying ingrown (toe)nail

Abstract

A composition for remedying an ingrown fingernail or toenail contains a siloxane resin, an acrylate compound, and a photoinitiator. The composition, when applied to ingrown fingernail or toenail, forms an inverse curl in the direction opposite to the curved direction of the ingrown fingernail or toenail, and thus the effect of remedying an ingrown fingernail or toenail can be provided. In addition, the composition is capable of preventing a cured material from being separated from the surface of a fingernail or toenail while maximizing the degree of curl thereof through optimal mixing of the composition, preventing residues from being appearing after curing, and controlling the heat caused by reaction heat so that the temperature thereof does not rise, and thus has the effect of remedying an ingrown fingernail or toenail and excellent use convenience.
